EDIT: Although they couldn't completely run out the clock, that was a very strange decision by the Eagles to score, especially on first down. The Redskins basically wanted them to score.
The Eagles could have left the Redskins with only about 20-30 seconds left on the clock. Instead they have over two minutes left, needing a TD and a two point coversion.
It might be. Because of their rotation the Twins realize that they have a shot to win this year, and the Yankees would have to make it worth there while to give that up.
The Yankees didn't lose games 6 and 7 because the bullpen was tired. The Red Sox scored 4 runs in game 6, all off of the starting pitcher. They lost game 7 because the starter was bad and there is not too many people to turn to in the second inning.
I asked you if Torre's bullpen management has cost them a world series. You failed to answer that question. If Mariano Rivera had gotten three outs in game four the Yankees would have won the ALCS and probably the World Series. Don't bring Gordon into the mix, because he is not really the reason that they lost.
Oh, and Gom, before you trash Martinez take a look at where he ranked this year in terms of throwing out potential base stealers. You might be surprised considering what the perception is.
Remind me the last time the fact that Joe has blown out his bullpen cost the Yankees their season.
As for having them steal, we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one, because I don't believe in having those guys steal a ton of bases. Before you complain about the Yankee's offense this year, you might want to take a look at the numbers they put up.
Was it his fault that the starters weren't giving them any innings early in the season.
On top of that you guys are only focusing on one thing. Nobody is perfect, and, in my opinion, his positives (which you guys all ignore), out way his negatives.
For what it's worth, I haven't really seen a good reason to fire Torre. Jacko, I know you've been advocating his firing for awhile, but I would just like to see you justify it all at once.
